For those of you that received your figures: What condition were the boxes in? Someone at another board I go to reported getting his Grayskulls with beat up boxes. He also said the tape on them had been cut and then taped over.

UPS just dropped mine off and I have to say I'm pretty disappointed. I only ordered one and I was hoping for a regular and that's what I got. What was disappointing was the condition of the box. It was really beat up. The box they shipped it in is pretty thin and flimsy and it looked like mine was on the bottom of a big stack of packages. The top was caved in and the Grayskull's box is creased in multiple spots.

It's really unacceptable. Mattel knows that this is a collector line don't they? It stands to reason that collectors are going to want mint(or near mint) packages. $38.00 for a beat up package King Grayskull? Leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

My boxes are just fine as far as I can tell.

don't be mad because even the ones at the con were it crappy shape...

2012 Create a character Runners up Mini-Sub please!!! I needs Bubblor and Major Header.

BTW, should I just open these along the taped top or is there a special way of knowing whether ones a regular version versus being a variant statue version? I dont want to open it the wrong way and then not be able to trade someone on the marketplace

No way other than opening.

I just took a knife and cut the tape. But I don’t care about preserving condition, so *shrugs*.

It’s just standard crystal clear tape anyway. Go ahead and peel it off if you want and buy some Scotch Magic Tape to reseal it. If you’re worried about condition, carefully peel the tape off toward the edge, otherwise you’ll rip the art away from the cardboard.
